I figured that; I just wanted to start off with perl6 before I did
anything in PIR.

A few months ago Larry proposed to add some testing
facilites to the language itself, because we want to
culturally encourage testing, and because the test
suite defines the language, so we need to specify the
behaviour of our testing facilities anyway.
We also discussed some possible changes to t

Hi,
I pretty much like this idea. Very perl6ish :)
- I don't think it's important whether it is called :ok, :OK or :test or

modules/code/etc. will be using more advanced modules for testing
anyway. This is for testing the imple

Using the most powerful operators available (I'd like to see more of

Hi
I assume that BDD(Behavior Driven Development) and the vocabulary that
it implies is not a good choice

someone feels like to.
Well, the vocabulary that i
